The Project

I'm looking to do photoshoots (possibly very quick ones) with as many gay men (and perhaps women - my thoughts on this project are fluid) as possible, firstly in London and when possible, further out into the rest of the British Isles. Now I note this is not about sex, nudity, pornography or anything like that. It's about showing gay diversity and helping gay visibility in these days of civil partnerships.

Anyone who's interested please contact me via my website and we can sort something out. I really am looking for the most diverse mix of ages, ethnicities, body types, you name it. So don't think I'll say no - I'll almost certainly say yes. If you want to know how good I am at portrait photography have a look here.

hello. I'm a gay man with creative mental ache too. What are you doing about yours? I'm feeling a bit stranded and need a career map, shiny new life compass and a very fast car (or at least some sturdy boots) to get me there.

I'm going ahead with the project - I'm making contacts and intend to make it work. It's very tiring though - a full day at the office and then starting with the photography after that, not to mention filling up the weekends...

How do you mean stranded?

Darth Gateau said...

stranded in that I'm not sure what to do. I don't hate what I do now - it's go some unbelievably cool perks but I just don't know....

I dunno. At 36 I know there's all sorts of work I can do and do well. I'm good at my job (I think), I'd even not mind doing it for some time. But it isn't mine - to do that I need to have my own project. And I'm wanting that more and more. I hope this project bears fruit - it's already bearing creative fruit...

Yowsers - I've just looked at your website. How cool are you?! Amazing pics. Can't offer any comments on technical aspects but they're very enjoyable photos to sit and and browse thru. Kinda like an online coffee table book - if that's not considered insulting - it's not meant to be.
Now something creative.... hmmmm... I'd like to do something creatve. Off to have a think about that...

Jason said...

It's not insulting at all. In fact the project itself is to create such a book...that was a nice start to the day! :)

Glad I could be of service. Maybe that's what I should devote myself to - making people happy. Hmm... that opens up charity work, hairdressing or prostitution. I'm destined to be poor however I look at it!
